WHY HE DID NOT GU TO THE HOSPITAL.

HH COULD LEAP THRODGH THE AIR. My object in writing is twofold : to ex. pn bb my gratitude for a great benefit, and to tell ;\ short story which oannor, fail to interest the feelings of many others* It is, all about mysolf, but I have remarked that when a man tells the honest truth about; himself ho is all the more likely to be of use to his fellow creatures. To begin, then, you must know I ht.d been long rnoro or locs subject to attacks of bronchitis, a complaint that yon ate aware is very common and troublesome in Grout Britain in oertain seasons of the year. Bone months ago I had a very severe tura of it, worse, I think, than I ever had before. It was probably brought on by my caching cold, as we are nil apt to do wher, we least expact it. Weeks passod by and my trouble proved to be very obstinate. It would not yield to medicine, and as I a'l > began to have violent raoking pains in my limbs and back I became greatly clarmed. I conld neither cat nor sleep. If I had bean a feeble, sickly man, I should have thought lefa strangely of it; but as, on the contrary, I wjs hearty and robust, I feared some new and terrible tiling had pot bold of me, which might make ray strength of vjo avail against it. I say, that was the way I thought. Prosently I could not even lie down for tho pain all over my body, I asked my doctor what he thought of my oondition, and he frankly said, "I am sorry to have to tell you that you are getting worse I" This eo frightened my friends, as well as myself, that they said " Thomas, votr must go to THE BosFITAIi; IT MAY BK YOTJK ONIiY OHANOB FOB LIFJB !"

But I didn't want to go to the hospital Who does, when he thicks he can possibly get along without it P lam a laboring man. with a large family depending on me for suppart;, and I might a'most re well be in my ;rave fti to be laid on my back in a hospital, unable to lift a hand for monthi, or Goti.only knows how long. Bight at this point I had a thought flash across my mind like u streak of sunshine in a oloudy day. I hud heard and read a good deal about Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, and I reio!red, before consenting to be taken to the hospital, I would try that well-known remedy. On ihia I gave up tho. dootor's medicine and began taking the Syrup. Mark the wonderful result 1 I had taken bnt three doses within twenty-four houra when I was seized with a fit of coughing, and threw up the phlegm and mu'oooa off my chest by the mouthful, The Sjrup had loosened and broken it up. Continuing with the Syrup, the racking pain, whioh I believe came from the bitter and poiton humors in my blood and pints, soon left me entirely, and I felt like going to sleep, and I did s'eep sound and quiet. Then I felt hungry, with a natural appetite, and ae I ate I soon got strong anl well. "I FBKT I COTJXD EbAP THBOTr(»H THB Aib with Delight !" In a week I was able to go to my work again. It doesn't seem possible, yet it is true, and the neighbors know it. There are plenty of witnesses to prove it. And, therefore, when I say I preach the good news of the great power of Seigel'a Syrup to cure pain aud disease far and wide, nobody will wonder at mo. , Thomas Canning, 75, Military Boad, Canterbury, Kent.
